Okay so day 3 wasn't the best. My muscles were so sore from day 1 and 2 ( I forgot to stretch) that i decided I would take a day to rest. I ate a smaller a breakfast than usual and as a result snacked a bit more than the last two days. I think 4 meals works better than 5 for me. Big breakfast, lunch, snack and dinner. On my daily walk I had a sugar craving. Gave it 20 mins and caved, with the thinking that 1 piece of cake will not be the end of all, and after my piece of cake-not particularly sugary-think cheesecakeish- i didn't have another sugar craving for the rest of the day. This could work. As long as I only have the resources for a small bit of a sugar hit, it will stop me snacking on other foods as a result to satisfy the craving.

so bigger breakfast, occasional sugar hit (if it will prevent more snacking) is okay

And as for my day of rest.... I went for a half hour run instead, and stretched afterwards in the hopes of loosening a few muscles...not at all sure it worked, but i don't feel as if my day has been a waste either now
